ABSTRACT:
A display apparatus includes a luminescent screen having pixels formed from blue, green and red luminescent material that are selectively activated by a laser beam to generate a full color image. The display utilizes a closed loop laser scanning/modulating arrangement in which a Position Sensitive Device (PSD) located next to the screen is used to determine the location of the impinging beam, and to transmit timing/location data to the laser addressing system. The laser addressing system uses the timing/location data to adjust and/or modulate the laser beam, thereby generating high-energy beam pulses that activate the selected pixels. The PSD includes vertical strips located along the side edges of the screen, or a sheet that is located behind the screen and accessed, for example, by way of slits or apertures formed in the screen material. The PSD sheet is coupled to an optional power source to form a photon-multiplication device.
